Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, will resign from her position at the end of August, according to an announcement by President Donald Trump. She has decided to spend more time with her family, having recently given birth to her second child.
Trump described Leavitt as one of his trusted advisors and respected her decision. Although she will leave her position, Leavitt will continue to work with Trump as an outside advisor, thus remaining in his close circle.
Her departure comes at a crucial time for the Trump administration, with less than three months before the midterm elections, which will influence the composition of Congress and the president's ability to promote his political agenda.
The role of press secretary is essential in the administration's communication, and Trump has not yet announced who will replace Leavitt. The administration will clarify the reorganization of the communication team soon.
